If you don’t build from within and cherry pick from the portal this will happen.

Leadership, trust, new scheme, and new environment for these young men don’t always produce unit you want.

Two schools of thought now. Keep going and try to outscore everyone, or play the young guys and give them the experience you need to be successful down the road.

We have to play the young guys.

Kelly's elite talent from 2023 should be ready by now, anyway. Weeks and Womack make plays when given time.

The problem is that Kelly wants a complicated zone scheme, and House is all about that life, so because these guys don't know every assignment as well inferior older players, they "don't know the scheme" and they won't play them.

Same shite is holding back usage of Perkins. They want him to "learn to play linebacker" which is nerfing any impact and wasted and offseason of development. Now he's in no man's land, wasting a year, and we have 1 more year of him (and he doesn't project to be ready for that role by then).

This is why Aranda was so good. Dude had a desired D, but would mold his scheme around the talent he had. And, most importantly, he had the ability to communicate with the players so that they understood their roles. House comes off as the guy who communicates one way and has no ability to understand how to transfer the information about his defense to players outsdie of that. Then he punishes the kids for his inability to communicate.
